Summer 1987 - the summer that home shopping games invaded TV (don't forget "Bargain Hunters".....OK, on second thought, *forget* "Bargain Hunters"). [/quote]
Forget Shopper's Casino in Fall 1987, too.

That was the very first time I had heard of Bob Goen, was from the "Home Shopping Game"....WCAU-10 (then CBS) aired it in the summer of '87 with another game show - can't remember what it was though..

HSG replaced Strike it Rich on WCAU. I think Elaine Joyce DG was the 9AM show on WCAU at the time.

Goen hosted the Home Shopping Game.

Bob Goen had better luck after shaving that mustache when doing the daytime Wheel for CBS & NBC. [/quote]
Aaron never said that Bob hosted Bargain Hunters. He just said that it was another shopping game from 1987.

...Which was hosted by Peter Tomarken, and produced by Merrill Heatter, of Hollywood Squares fame.
